This may not be the right place to ask, but I was wondering if anyone had any hints on tightening the lower stomach area.

I am one of those people who have what my doctor "delicately" terms an apron stomach.

Even though I've only lost 20 pounds I'm already noticing a definite deflation of that area, which means its going to be a real problem way before I reach the point of being ready to consider surgery for removal of excess skin.

(needless say, the deflation of the area is a GOOD thing, but I'd really like to minimize the possibility I'll have this rather bizarre flag flying below my waist while I lose down to my goal)
